Description
Clothed in Language explores the role of language as a medium through which the divine is made present to us. Pauline Matarasso examines how metaphor, rhythm and other literary devices shape our understanding of truth.
The book delves into the ways in which language reflects and sometimes conceals reality, drawing on examples from myth, fairy tale, lore and Scripture. A personal journal provides a reflective framework for this inquiry.
